Hardware - August 2006

I've checked all plug ins, turned off modem and let rest; turned back on. DSL and Wireless lights are both blinking. (I used to have DSL) I can't seem to get the computer to recognize any wireless..even neighbor's weak signals. Any ideas? Thanks BMJ

I have a Fujitsu Lifebook S7010 with integrated Intel Pro Graphics with 64MB shared RAM. I'd like to get a Dell 24" monitor, but obviously the integrated graphics card can't support the resolution. Is there any way that i could get the two to work together? I'm not too keen on getting a whole new PC just so I can have the nice big monitor, so what are my options, if any?

It's pretty old and only has one USB port, which sucks b/c my ethernet connector thingy goes in one of them but i wouldn't be able to upload songs to my iPod at the same time. And it cuts off even with the adapter plugged into it. Basically, I got it for free and want to trick it out to be a usable laptop for my classes in the fall. Oh and please include costs (in total).

The back of my computer has a fan, and the fan stopped working.

Now, when it heats up, the computer shuts off automatically.


Is this something that i can replace myself, or do I need to take it to some computer repair shop??


Currently, i use a small portable fan that i have plugged in, as a temporary replacement.


Any SERIOUS advice would be appreciated...
